I believe so generally. I'm not sure about the op, though.

Just increasing the working memory to certain size would solve the
problem.  There might be a potential issue that it might be hard like
this case for users to find out that the GUC works for their issue (if
actually works).  pg_stat_replicatoin_slots.spill_count / spill_txns
could be a guide for setting logical_decoding_work_mem.  Is it worth
having additional explanation like that for the GUC variable in the
documentation?

regards.
